Reviews

Melissa Willard-Foster presents new and innovative theories that not only describe the causes but also predict the likelihood and nature of foreign-imposed regime change. Her book is a key work on an understudied yet vitally important topic, especially in the policy arena. -Dan Reiter, author of How Wars End
